Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the availability and utilization of laboratory resources and achievement of students in Senior Secondary School Chemistry. Participants were 120 SS III students and five Chemistry teachers in the selected Secondary Schools in Ijebu Ode Local Government Area of Ogun State. Participants completed the availability and utilization of laboratory inventory-type questionnaires. Correlation research design was adopted for the study. The data were analyzed on the basis of the two hypotheses, using Pearson Product Moment Correlation. Result shows that there is significant relationship between the utilization of laboratory resources and students’ achievement in Chemistry. The result obtained revealed that most Secondary Schools do not have adequate resources for chemistry instruction and the few available resources are not properly utilized for chemistry instructions in schools. This has a strong influence on their academic achievement in the subject. The researcher therefore concluded that when chemistry teachers made used of laboratory resources adequately and presenting his teaching in a less abstract manner, the achievement of students in the subject will improved exponentially and this will increase the number of students that will apply to science related courses in higher institutions. Thereby leading to the attainment of scientific and technological advancement of the state and the Nation at large. Based on this, it was strongly recommended that Student should be encouraged to fully involve in the practical class activities so that the teaching and learning of chemistry will real and effective not only for passing an examinations but for the acquisition of skills that will be needed in future. Government and other stakeholders in education should aso assist in ensuring that adequate facilities for teaching and learning of Chemistry in our Senior Secondary Schools are provided and that Chemistry teachers should always make requisition for the materials needed and ensure proper utilization of the materials for Chemistry teaching.
